You know, Robbie Robertson is half Mohican and he has sure written and performed many moving and beautiful songs and albums. "Shine Your Light," for the movie, Ladder 49. I can't stop listening to them. I've seen many singer's/group's perform live over the years, but I haven't seen Robbie...yet. If I get the chance, I will be there!

Hello all I work with Spider and he told me of this site, I am of Souix descent through my great granfather who was 100%. Firefighter II EMT Volunteer for now but I am trying to become a full timer
I have looked all over for rez firefighter stuff and have found NOTHING !!! Sure would bee cool to find some ! I was made a captain for the year 2010 ! wheaaa
well I guess you do this long enough and it happen's, I took my cousin on his last ride to the hospital, they pronounched him at the hospital. thanks to the ALS team that worked on him all the way there.
Well I got the guys at the hall mad at me ! We had a call for a truck fire next to the house and it was like four house's down from my place so by the time they got there I had it put out. When we got back to the hall all I recieved was looks and head shaking ! but it was all in fun,so it was good.But I didnt get any pictures though.
Hello everyone, I wanted to invite you to check out a new site called www.Brotherhoodfirst.com. Its a site for FFs to buy, sell and trade with other FFs, for Free! Thanks, stay safe!
You have to admit these are great looking, I am also going to be doing t--shirts with the same logo on the back and logo on the front of a differnt design
so we have a house across the street from our's that we are "playing"with. Did roof ventilation on it, some rescue searching, hope to do a couple of more drills with it before we burn it. Last year I got us a mobile home to "play" with. Had quite a few good drills with other companys with it, since there are alot of them here on the rez. I set it up like a typical home out here. It was some good training. hope to get some photos of the house, was too busy to take any of the trailer.
Keep up the training George, we also had a house for 2 years, the nice thing it was all plaster. We had several live fires in these rooms and alot of search and rescue under heat and smoke conditions. Yes we did have charged safety lines and fully charged advancing lines. We to had to burn it down one day...
I went to the Nanticoke Nation Pow Wow in Deleware last weekend had a great time meeting new people and watching all the different styles of dance. But I must say the best part was the pumpkin fry bread it was awsome!
Hello everyone. I just joined FFN and the Native American FF network. I am looking for info and references to any Native American Wildland firefighting crews for a paper I am writing for a college class. Looking for different tribes that have crews and their history and any stories on fires they have been on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and stay safe!

Welcome to our corner John I have some pretty good ideas for shirts but they do cost up front and I have not ventured that far yet. I tried this with the patch and still have several lots left as they work with minimums
wow...it's been a long time since I have been here. How is everyone ? we just got back from N.C, for a Neyuheru';ke 300 mmmmm 'celebration'. while there after one of the lectures a ma walks over and leans to look at my patch and says ' I thought I seen a firefighter and hands me a patch from his company. He says he is a retired Batt. commander from Greenville fire-rescue. so cool. I was just sorry I didn't have any patch's to give him. so I will be getting in touch and buying some patch's .
hi all, been a bit. our elections are coming up tomarrow night and think I will turn in my Cpt's helmet. our chief just passed away and he was "grooming"me for a chief's position but I just don't feel like it right now.i just want to be a blackhat.
